If you’ve learnt human biology you know roughly where they are, but why can’t you say exactly where your liver is for example? Does the brain just not know?

Knowing where your organs are isn’t something you need to do if they don’t move relative to the rest of your body; you can feel when your stomach or large intestine is full, but you don’t really need to be able to locate say your gall bladder.

Knowing where your legs are in contrast is extremely useful, and something that the brain will need to get practice in.
